Orchid Vine 5 Seeds , Bauhinia Corymbosa! Hardy

Orchid Vine - 5 Fresh Seeds (Bauhinia Corymbosa)

The pale pink flowers with dark veining are abundant from spring to autumn and are complimented by the purple tinged new growth. It is perfect for covering a pergola, fence or over a tree and is spectacular as a ground cover especially when in flower.
Bauhinia corymbosa (Phanera) - A tendril-bearing vine with 2 inch long, deeply cleft heart-shaped, light green leaves. The lavender/rose-pink orchid-like flowers are five-petaled, of which the upper three are veined with deep purple-red. Brown seed pods will follow the spring through fall bloom. Once established this vine is tolerant to frost and drought, but looks better if given regular watering.
This Bauhinia is very low maintenance, hardy and non invasive
Germination:
Place seed in a container and pour in just boiled water and let cool for 24 hrs. Sow swollen seed afterpre-treatment, re-treat others. Sow depth of seed width. Keep warm and moist but need to wet.
Optimum germination temperature: 25-30 °C (77-86 °F)
Germination: 14-30 days
The propagating media should be free draining but also retain moisture. A commercial seed raising mix is suited. Soil should be maintained at between 25 and 30°C, which is the optimum range for germinating Bauhinia seed for best and quickest results.
The propagating area should be well ventilated, as an adequate oxygen supply is important in triggering reactions within the seeds to stimulate germination.
The mix must be kept moist but not wet at all times during the germination process.
